I've used gasket sealant there twice and have not had any issues or leaks.i was concerned about over application and the excess squeezing out between the faces and becoming dislodged then floating around until it blocked a gallery. So i went down the apply sparing route and none squeezed out on the outside of the engine so I guess none had squeezed out inside.
